Can't hit Intelsat 11 at 43.1W

I can hit 55.5w and SES 6 at 40.5w but not 43.1w.
I was a little shocked I hit 40.5w even without the dielectric plate I scanned in two channels.

Does anyone know a strong transponder for dvb-s I can program into my birdog?

That's impressive LOS from Colorado. Based upon footprint from Satbeams, you should be able to get signal from most of the transponders listed on Lyngsat and Sathint.

Well I just got it in in the last 20 minutes. After running back and forth outside a million times. Not really tuned in on the 10-footer. It's working at around 50%.

Tried a few of the dvb-s listed on lyngsat on my bird dog nothing is locked in yet.

Anyone with a good dvb-s for me?

4026V 18530 is strong and 4040H 30800 is stronger. That is a weaker satellite for me but those 2 transponders always come in.

Thank you. I did tune her out bit more. Not much in fta on unless you speak Spanish
